The Incas by Carmen Bernand
When Pizarro arrived in Peru in 1532 he found a vast empire rich in gold and silver. Ruled by monarchs claiming descent from the sun, its people built roads, bridges and fields through the Andes. But within months the empire had been conquered and its subjects killed or enslaved.
An anthropologist and a historian, Carmen Bernand studied anthropology at the University of Buenos Aires, where she became interested in Andean populations. Paul Bahn is the author or editor of numerous books, including the standard introduction to cave art, Images of the Ice Age, as well as The First Artists (with Michel Lorblanchet).
